Suppose there are 100 workers in the economy in which all workers must choose to work a risky or a safe job. Worker 1's reservat

ion for accepting the risky job is $1; worker 2's reservation price is $2, and so on. Because of technological reasons, there are only 10 risky jobs.
A. What is the equilibrium wage differential between safe and risky jobs? Which workers will be employed at the risky firm?

B. Suppose now that an advertising campaign, paid for by the employers who offer risky jobs, stresses the excitement associated with "the thrill of injury," and this campaign changes the attitudes of the work force toward being employed in a risky job. Worker 1 has a reservation price of -$10 (that is, she is willing to pay $10 for the right to work in a risky job); worker 2's reservation price is -$9, and so on. There are still only 10 risky jobs. What is the new equilibrium wage differential?

C. Show a supply and demand for risky jobs diagram to represent the situations in question a and b.

Answer:

<em>The solution is explained in the explanation section below</em>

Explanation:

Solution:

(a) <em>In the economy there exist 100 workers. the wage of reservation to take risky job for worker 1 is $1 and $2 for worker -2. only 10 jobs is seen as risky.</em>

<em>The curve of supply is shown as upward which starts from 1, because the price of reservation for the first worker is 1 and 2 is for the second worker and it keeps going on like that.</em>

<em>The demand curve is seen as elastic in a perfect form, due to the fact that there are only 10 risky jobs.</em>

<em>The 10th worker price is $10, because is wage differential is $10</em>

<em>(b) The worker's altitude towards taking risky jobs has changed, because of the advertisement. the wage reservation is -10$ for the first worker and -$9 for the second worker.</em>

<em>Th jobs seen as risky is available are only 10</em>

<em>However, as a result of the campaign advertisement, the curve of supply moves down and the market equilibrium gets is gotten when the wage differential is -$1. most people on the daily basis dislike risk, but the market determines those risky jobs that will pay less than the safe ones. </em>

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

By following the Accountants Principle and Dicksons policy of debiting Bad debt accounts as Accounts are written off, the Net income would have been impacted negatively (reduced) by the write off from Prior period of $31,330 only

However, by following the % of receivables approach, a total of $31,330 (Write off from prior period) + $9,240 (current period provision for bad debt) will impact the Net Income negatively (reduced)  = $40,570

Explanation:

Accounts receivable balance = $77,000

12% projected uncollectible debt = $9,240

Provision for bad debt under the % of receivables approach = $9,240

Amount written off related to prior year = $31,330
